At
the dance competition held in conjunction with the 17th
Annual Convention of the IAGLCWDC
in Austin, Texas, members of the Texas Twisters rocked
the house!

The Twisters brought home the "Top Club" award
which is given to the club which has the largest number
of competitive entries. Let's have a huge round of
congrats to our club members who competed and helped
bring home this award for the Twisters. The
Twisters had four people competing who danced in three
different categories of dance for a combined total of 14
competitor entries, giving the Texas Twisters top Club
honors.

Tony N. and <name withheld by request> -- 2nd
Place Overall, Intermediate Couples

-- 2nd Place in Waltz and Two-Step
-- 3rd Place in West Coast Swing

Congratulations to our Club!

Weather
report for the Twisters....

Cloudy
at the moment with a hint of sunshine on the horizon....

The Texas Twisters
Dance Club still exists, but is not very active at the
moment. Due to declining membership and lack of
interest, the 2008-2009 Board voted to place the club
into a "holding pattern" in the hopes that the
"forecast" would improve and new members would
join and the club would grow and become more active
again.

We found three members
willing to serve as Board members to keep the club
viable, on paper at least. Three Board Members is
the minimum number of members required to expend funds
and make decisions on behalf of the club, and to
maintain our 501-3c status as a non-profit organization.
